"Love It If We Made It" lyrics

"Love It If We Made It"

Fucking in a car
Shooting heroin
Saying controversial things
Just for the hell of it
Selling melanin and then
Suffocate the black man
Start with misdemeanours
And we'll make a business out of them
And we can find out the information
Access all the applications
That are hardening positions
Based on miscommunication
Oh! Fuck your feelings
Truth is only hearsay
We're just left to decay
Modernity has failed us

And I'd love it if we made it
Yes, I'd love it if we made it
Yes, I'd love it if we made it
Yes, I'd love it if we made it

And poison me, daddy
I got the Jones right through my bones
Write it on a piece of stone
A beach of drowning three-year olds
Rest in peace Lil Peep
The poetry is in the streets
Jesus save us!
Modernity has failed us

And I'd love it if we made it
Yes, I'd love it if we made it
Yes, I'd love it if we made it
Yes, I'd love it if we made it

And I'd love it if we made it
And I'd love it if we made it
And I'd love it if we made it
I'd love it if we made it
Tell me something I didn't know

Consultation degradation
Fossil fuelling masturbation
Immigration liberal kitsch
Kneeling on a pitch
"I moved on her like a bitch!"
Excited to be indicted
Unrequited house with seven pools
"Thank you, Kanye, very cool!"
The war has been incited
And guess what? You're all invited
And you're famous
Modernity has failed us

And I'd love it if we made it
And I'd love it if we made it
And I'd love it if we made it
Tell me something I didn't know
And I'd love it if we made it
And I'd love it if we made it
And I'd love it if we made it
I'd love it if we made it

These lyrics refer to many issues in the modern society, e.g. the so called "fake news" spread by mass media, sex, drug addiction, and racism.
The 1975 vocalist, Matt Healy, told Beat 1's Zane Lowe about the song, "It's me looking out. It's an interesting one 'cause there's not a lot of context and a lot of the things I say in that are direct quotes from people or they're headlines that I've read."
Matty Healy explained to NME his goal with this song, "I wanted it to be loud and outward but objective, and you can't really call me out on anything in it."
In a video with genius.com, Matt Healy said that these lyrics tell about the death of Lil' Peep, the refugee crisis in the Middle East, sexual assault accusations against Donald Trump etc.
